I mentioned before that I planted my uncle Dave's favorite rose in my front yard, the Peace rose. He visited my parents one year and planted one in their yard as a thank-you gift for staying with them. I thought I could start a new tradition and plant one wherever I live as a little "peace" of him. (Sorry that was an awful pun, but I HAD to).

Well this weekend I went out to get some more bare-root roses before they are all gone, and I found another "tribute rose" -- the Chicago Peace rose. You may be aware that my beloved cousin Bree is in Chicago right now, and I miss her SOOOOOO much, so I thought this would be a fitting rose to plant. It's like the Peace rose, but peach and pink instead of white and pink. Isn't it beautiful!?

ReplyDeleteThere is no better reminder than beautiful flowers! Thanks Korey!
I just put in my Veggy garden..and of course it's raining and cold now. Tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, blueberries and now I have to find something else that's really hard to spell!
ReplyDeleteYou guys have come a long way from tearing flowers out of the ground - but your still pretty cute!
